World of Warcraft Board Game Announced

Blizzard's official World of Warcraft community website has been updated with an announcement that a board game based on the popular MMORPG is in the works. The description:
Explore the misty eaves of the Silverpine Forest, the hills of the Hinterlands, or the rotten corruption of the Plaguelands... and do it on your tabletop, with your friends all around you.

World of Warcraft: the Board Game has over 135 gorgeous plastic models and other components to bring Azeroth to life in a way never before seen. Play as one of 16 different characters drawn from all classes and races, and progress to the apex of power in a single evening's play.
